I am a Ph.D. Student in Computer Science at the Federal University of Bahia. I have a Master’s in Computer Science from the Federal University of Sergipe. I was a Visiting Researcher for six months at Virginia Commonwealth University, sponsored by the Capes PrInt program. I am interested in the Software Engineering field, mostly in studying how human aspects (especially empathy), can affect software practitioners. Currently I am investigating empathetic practices and its effects in software engineering.
